Interactive Dashboard of US States

When Did Your State Join the Union is an interactive dashboard based visualization of data included in the List of states and territories of the United States article on Wikipedia. It displays basic information about the states of the Unites States of America at a glance. In particular, the dashboard is helpful to quickly learn in what year each state joined the union and their contribution to the whole US population, land area, and seats in the House of Representatives. It also shows state capitals, population, and some other relevant data.

When checking out this interactive dashboard, don’t forget to make good use of the multi-select feature to see totals for several states at once. And you are also welcome to take a look at more dashboard samples in our Solutions collection.

Is Donald Trump’s Wall Necessary?

Interactive chart and map - Is Donald Trump's Wall Necessary?
People in the United States continue arguing on whether building a wall along the US-Mexico border as promised by Donald Trump is really worth it. If you are ready to analyze data and decide whose side to take, take a look at this interesting chart published earlier this year by the Economist in the Daily Chart section. It is a visualization of data from the US Border Patrol and the Center for Investigative Reporting that displays the change in the number of people illegally crossing the boarder from Mexico.
